6 stars service

Staff friendly and always available! Hotel infront of the beach and with sun beds and towels included in the room booking! Best position closed to other restaurants and pubs. We felt like at home! If you find a room available do not hesitate to book it; it is a lovely boutique hotel with only 4 rooms.

Great location, great hotel

Directly on the beach and quiet because it is not on the main road, this is a very nice hotel. Breakfast on the beach with fresh fruit juices was a great way to start each day. Only 4 rooms so the service is good and personal. No pool but the ocean is so nice there, no need for one. Our room fan was not working when we arrived and they immediately began working to get it functioning. In the end they replaced the whole fan. The only warning I would give is that there is beach party at the hotel on saturday night. If you don't like loud music then avoid saturday. Or better - go down and enjoy the beach party.

Låt oss börja med det som var bra; utsikten från balkongen. Vad var mindre bra: – Det är på riktigt en nattklubb nedanför balkongen på lördagar. Vi hade inte blivit förvarnade om detta. Det lät på riktigt som om att högtalaren stod i vårt rum. – AC fungerade ej. – Duschen svämmade över. – Kackerlackor runt badrummet – Vi blev bortkörda från våra solstolar (innan solen går ned) – Utbyggnad pågår 2 meter från balkongen (november -24) – Inget städ. Fick be om påfyllning av hygienartiklar. Det här är ju mer av en kulturgrej men badrummet har inga dörrar in till sig. All in all, 2 stjärnor.
